Diane Schuur

Dizzy Gillespie thinks shes divine. B.B. King thinks shes brilliant. Find out for yourself when Diane Schuur takes the stage backed by the University of Houston jazz orchestra today. Blessed with a three-and-a-half octave range, the Grammy Award winner has performed with musical greats Stan Getz, Maynard Ferguson and Quincy Jones. Schuurs easy, swinging style masks her technical proficiency; her bright voice leaps up and down the scale with no apparent effort. Not only can you can expect to hear songs like The Very Thought of You, Come Rain or Come Shine and Teach Me Tonight, you can expect to hear them done very, very well. 7:30 p.m. Miller Outdoor Theatre, 100 Concert Drive, in Hermann Park.
